Koenigsegg CC850 with a Auto/MT transmission

https://www.autoblog.com/2022/08/19/...-transmission/

Heres another supercar whoopty doo....who cares.

Except they seem to have created a very odd Manual/Automatic transmission.
This ones funky different as in:
-A DSG type AT is essentially a manual transmission in an automatic mode and no clutch pedal or gear shifter. manual gear shifts are controlled using paddles or the +/- on the shift lever.
-An automatic transmission is obviously an automatic....it does everything for you, no clutch pedal or gear shifter. manual gear shifts are controlled using paddles or the +/- on the shift lever.
-A manual transmission...obviously you do all the shifting yourself. no automatic mode.

This Koenigsegg seems to have combined an AT with MT functionality. Theres a gated shifter, a clutch pedal and an AT mode.

Ok, so let's talk about the transmission. It's a version of the Light Speed Transmission, which has a set of seven clutches and nine gear ratios and can jump from any gear to any other gear, unlike most dual-clutch transmissions that have to shift sequentially. In the Jesko, it's an automatic transmission with paddle shifters. Here, it has an automatic mode, but it also has a manual mode, complete with clutch pedal. The clutch pedal does actuate the transmission's multiple clutches, and it is possible to stall the car if you're not balancing your clutch and throttle inputs. And the shifter will tell the car which gear you want. Curiously, there are only six gates for the manual mode. Christian von Koenigsegg said that having to pick through nine gates would be complicated, so the company stuck with six. Depending on what drive mode you're in, though, the different gates will get you different ratios. So hypothetically, you could have a set of closer ratios for a track mode, and more widely spaced ones with a tall top gear for street and highway driving.
